213: Chapter 213 We are good friends

Purple Kite stared at her Rebellious Disciple with eyes like torches;

In contrast, Chen Qingxuan felt a bit guilty.

He originally thought some blind enemy had appeared, so he had bullied her without any sense of decency, feeling that she had brought it on herself.

But now he was suddenly told that this was the pearl of a crucial power they had just won over.

Isn't this a mess?

If outsiders found out what had happened, his enemies would probably wake up laughing from their dreams.

No!

The Fu Clan of the Dragon Domain cannot be pushed to the opposing side.

Chen Qingxuan made a decision immediately, looking at Purple Kite with a smile: "Don't worry, I'll handle this matter properly. You don't need to involve yourself."

?

Purple Kite was speechless;

Seeing Chen Qingxuan rarely take charge only made her frown more. "I'm telling you, the Dragon Domain is a top-tier Prefecture in the Three Thousand Divine Provinces. It can be said that most of the Dragon Domain is controlled by the Fu Clan. Their foundation is so deep it's beyond words. In the future, if we want to suppress those Upper Immortal Groups that are rebelling, we'll need the Fu Clan's support. This is the key to our turning the tables... Don't go giving me some huge 'surprise'!"

"No, no."

Chen Qingxuan waved his hands repeatedly in guilt;

Meeting Purple Kite's serious expression, he feigned a relaxed tone: "I already said to leave it to me. Don't you know how capable your Disciple is?"

...

Purple Kite looked Chen Qingxuan up and down but said nothing more.

After all, she had no idea what had happened, let alone what Fu Yue had gone through.

After she left.

Chen Qingxuan was like a deflated balloon, collapsing into a chair and panting heavily.

He had sensed Fu Yue had a significant background from the start, and now knowing she was the most dazzling pearl of the Dragon Domain's Fu Clan... he couldn't help but feel conflicted.

After a long while.

Chen Qingxuan entered the Void Between Nothingness.

The moment he appeared, Fu Yue immediately grew tense, still glaring at Chen Qingxuan through gritted teeth. "You beast, what kind of place is this exactly?"

After Chen Qingxuan left earlier, she naturally hadn't sat idly by, trying every means to escape the Void Between Nothingness.

But the result was useless.

The power maintaining this space was something she couldn't even detect; she had never seen such a bizarre and helpless method.

...

Chen Qingxuan rubbed his nose guiltily;

Meeting Fu Yue's resentful gaze, he took a deep breath and began his plan. "You... couldn't be Xiao Yue, could you?"

"Huh?"

Fu Yue's expression froze.

Suddenly hearing Chen Qingxuan use this name left her somewhat dazed and confused.

She knew very well she hadn't told Chen Qingxuan her name, let alone her background, so how did he know her name?

And he called her that so disgustingly!

Before she could speak, Chen Qingxuan feigned excitement: "It's me! Qingxuan! Xiao Yue, don't you remember me? I used to play at my house, and you played at yours; we've known each other since we were very little."

?

Fu Yue's eyes were full of wariness.

These words didn't fool her; instead, they made her even more vigilant.

"I was wondering why I felt such a sense of familiarity when I first saw you," Chen Qingxuan said as he stepped forward. "It turns out we're old acquaintances. Sigh, it's all because we haven't seen each other for too long that I didn't recognize you for a moment."

"You beast... don't come over here!"

Fu Yue shouted.

Chen Qingxuan froze in place, pulled out the Fu Clan's exclusive Magical Artifact, and tossed it over. "Xiao Yue, it's me, Qingxuan. Here, this is your thing, I'm returning it to you. We used to be good friends!"

Fu Yue caught the Magical Artifact but didn't fall for it. "Who's good friends with you? Stop talking nonsense. You beast... what kind of trick are you playing now?"

"No... how can you be like this, Xiao Yue?" Chen Qingxuan feigned grievance. "I'm Qingxuan, how could you not remember me? We were good friends... When we were little, you even said you'd marry me when you grew up. Have you forgotten?"

"Bah!"

Fu Yue bit her silver teeth and frowned. "Me, marry you? Stop being disgusting... Even if I'd rather be with a dog, I could never marry a... a heartless, insane beast like you."

"No... it's all a misunderstanding."

Chen Qingxuan feigned a light sigh;

Facing Fu Yue's looks of disdain and resentment, he shook his head and said, "I know, not recognizing you and doing those things to you... indeed seems beastly to anyone. But there's a reason for it. If you want to hear it... I can explain it to you."

"Forget it!" Fu Yue sneered, interrupting him. "Do you take me for a three-year-old girl? To be deceived by your flowery words? What exactly do you want?"

...

The corner of Chen Qingxuan's mouth twitched.

Seeing that Fu Yue wasn't taking the bait, he could only bite the bullet and continue: "Actually, look at it from another perspective. If I really were the kind of person I intentionally acted like before, now that I've brought you to a place like this and you're no match for me, wouldn't I have finished you off long ago... why would I have only touched a 'peach'?"

"You..."

Fu Yue clenched her pink fists, a flush of shame creeping onto her fair cheeks;

But the words were on the tip of her tongue, yet she couldn't refute Chen Qingxuan's words.

She had also felt it was strange before. Clearly, he had laid hands on her... and acted like a total beast... why didn't he continue further later;

Instead, he disappeared?

This was indeed something Fu Yue couldn't figure out.

Seeing her waver, Chen Qingxuan pressed his advantage: "Xiao Yue, I know the first impression of our reunion wasn't good. To be honest, I didn't recognize you as Xiao Yue either, mainly because we haven't met for too long, otherwise you wouldn't have forgotten me. I also regret doing those things to you, but nothing I say now matters. How about this... I'll agree to whatever you say, just give me a chance to apologize and make amends, okay?"

"Fine!"

Fu Yue said immediately: "Let me out."

"That won't do."

Chen Qingxuan's refusal was also very blunt.

"Hmph, you talk so sweetly... what exactly are you planning?" Fu Yue sneered, seemingly not expecting Chen Qingxuan to actually let her leave; it was just a test.

Chen Qingxuan stepped forward and said: "Listen to me, Xiao Yue. It's not that I want to imprison you, it's just that our misunderstanding hasn't been cleared up yet. Besides, if I really wanted to do something, you couldn't resist now anyway. Why would I bother pretending we're old acquaintances? What good would that do me?"

"Who knows?"

Fu Yue crossed her arms, her cold eyes glaring at Chen Qingxuan. "How can a human know what goes on in the mind of a beast?"

"Holy crap!"

Chen Qingxuan was at his limit.

Seeing that Fu Yue was immune to both soft and hard tactics, he also got angry. "I'm trying to have a nice chat with you. If you keep up this attitude, I'll really fuck you, believe it or not?"

"Heh~ stopped pretending?"

Fu Yue lifted her fair chin and sneered.

Whoosh—

Chen Qingxuan suddenly lunged forward;

In an instant, he pinned Fu Yue to the ground, holding both of her jade-like hands high above her head, his masculine body pressing against her soft, delicate frame,

"Mmm~"

Fu Yue let out a soft moan... PS: Happy New Year, everyone~~~
